David Beckham Loses Big On Rolls-Royce Phantom

Soccer phenom David Beckham has decided to part ways with his limited edition Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe after spending four years together.

Beckham took a nontraditional route when selling the vehicle — he used eBay. The Englishman bought the car in 2008 for almost $550,000 and spent thousands more having it customized. The mods included having it completely blacked out and fitted with 24-inch alloy rims.

The car features a 6.75 liter V12 which develops 450bhp and can do 0-62 mph in 5.9 seconds, with a top speed of 150mph.

The three ton beast averages just 11 miles per gallon, so probably isn’t the best choice for hauling your kids to school and back.
